Stay on top of Office 365 changes

In this article

With Office 365, you receive new product updates and features as they become available instead of scheduled updates that are months or years apart. As a result, you and your users will routinely experience new and improved ways to do your job rather than a costly and time-consuming company-wide upgrade. The challenge with such a model is keeping up with the changes and updates. Here are a few ways that you can stay on top of the Office 365 updates in your organization.

Learn about official service announcements and feature changes. You can read these messages in the Microsoft 365 admin center, the admin mobile app, or receive a weekly digest in email.

Sign up for Targeted release for yourself and a select group of individuals at your organization. Get the latest Office 365 updates before everyone else and then inform or train your users on the new experience.
